TEHRAN, Iran (AP) -- Iran's judiciary has asked Interpol to issue arrest warrants for 15 Israelis in connection with the Gaza offensive, Iranian state TV reported Monday. Interpol denied receiving such a request.
The TV said a court set up to investigate Iranian complaints against Israel provided Interpol with a list of Israeli leaders and details on accusations against them.
Prosecutor Saeed Mortazavi was quoted as saying Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni and Defense Minister Ehud Barak were all on the list. Others were top military officers involved in the recent offensive against Gaza's Hamas rulers.
However, Interpol said it has not been asked to issue warrants for Israelis linked to the Gaza offensive. The international police agency said the denial was an "unusual step" for the organization because it "does not ordinarily comment on false stories reported in the media."

fyi
Obama’s “change you can believe in”.
ROFLMAO!
When is Israel going to ask for arrest warrants for Iranian judges who sentence women to be stoned to death (probably a crime against humanity under “international standards”)?
There is nothing wrong with those Iranian judges that a 50-caliber sniper rifle with a U.S. Marine behind it could not fix.
Israel needs to nuke Iran off the planet....this Islamic Fascism has got to stop somehow...and maybe some tens of millions Koran-thumpers being vaporized will stop all the Islamic Terror and Anti-Semitism
—Iran: Seeking Interpol warrants for Israelis
ROFLMAO!—
IIRC Interpol is primarily an investigative agency. Even if it has the power to issue warrants, it has no arrest powers. This is bascially a stunt.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
